Embodiments of the present invention provide a chuck system for handling a wafer that comprises a first and a second main surface. The chuck system includes a chuck configured to hold the wafer at the second main surface facing the chuck and a release device. The chuck system further includes an actuator configured to lift the release device away from the chuck. The release device is configured such that the release device mechanically engages with the wafer at an edge portion of the second main surface of the wafer when being lifted, thereby releasing the wafer from the chuck.

Wafer releasing

A battery electrode in accordance with various embodiments may include: a substrate including a surface configured to face an ion-carrying electrolyte; and a first diffusivity changing region at a first portion of the surface, wherein the first diffusivity changing region is configured to change diffusion of ions carried by the electrolyte into the substrate, and wherein a second portion of the surface is free from the first diffusivity changing region.

Battery electrode, battery, and method for manufacturing a battery electrode

A lithium battery includes a cathode, an anode integrally formed within a silicon substrate, wherein a surface portion of the silicon substrate is patterned to form a plurality of sub-structures, and an electrolyte.

Lithium battery, method for manufacturing a lithium battery, integrated circuit and method of manufacturing an integrated circuit

A lithium battery includes a cathode, an anode including a component made of silicon, a separator element disposed between the cathode and the anode, an electrolyte, and a substrate. The anode is disposed over the substrate or the anode is integrally formed with the substrate.

A self powered memory system is disclosed. The system includes a volatile supply component, a battery component, a switch component, and a volatile memory component. The volatile supply component is configured to provide a time varying supply. The battery component is configured to generate a non-volatile supply. The switch component is configured to generate a persistent supply from the time varying supply and the non-volatile supply. The volatile memory component is configured to maintain data by using the persistent supply.
